~~~good or bad sportsmanship
It’s good to have good sportsmanship because its not about winning or losing its the fun that you have playing something that you enjoy.
~~~Fairness and Mediocricy
Yes, there should be fairness in playing the game, but what is fairness when the other team is playing mediocre. Does the winning team or other competitor begin to play mediocre just so the other has a fair chance. I believe not. The winning team should continue to play its best and follow all the game’s rules and not sacrifice its quality just so the other team has a fair chance.
~~~ The loser must accept their loss and learn from it and move on. There is always some one who is better than the other. You must decide to improve and work harder for next time.
"Individuals play the games, but teams win championships
(~~A word of encouragement during a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success.~~)
